Hi Ed,
Can I ask why the option exists if it shouldn't be used? Is it going to go
away in the future or will it be fixed. I have used --with-FOO in preference
to setting the environment under the assumption that it is more robust and I
think that's a reasonable assumption.
Thanks,
Stephen.

--with-hdf5=$PRO_PATH/Hdf5-1.8.7
Howdy all!
The --with-hdf5= parameter to configure is not the correct way to tell
netCDF where the HDF5 library is.
Instead, set environmental variables CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS, like this:
export CPPFLAGS=-I$PRO_PATH/Hdf5-1.8.7/include
export LDFLAGS=-L$PRO_PATH/Hdf5-1.8.7/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PRO_PATH/Hdf5-1.8.7/lib
THen run configure. Don't forget to do a make distclean first.
Good luck.
Ed
